Equipment Needed

Smoothie Making Tools
Smoothie Making Tools

A standard blender is all that is required to make these delicious smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.

If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend a higher-end Vitamix blender that can process larger loads more efficiently.

For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.


How To Make The Jamba Juice Pomegranate Paradise Smoothie

The Jamba Juice Pomegranate Paradise smoothie is very easy to make:

  • Step 1: Place mango, peaches, strawberries, pomegranate juice, and crushed ice into a blender and secure the lid.
  • Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
  • Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
  • Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.

Recipe Tips And Substitutions

If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.

Add full pomegranate seeds for a crunchy texture.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions

Why are pomegranates considered a super-fruit?

Pomegranates are considered a superfruit due to their rich content of potent antioxidants, notably punicalagin and punicic acid, which have been linked to numerous health benefits. These benefits include reducing inflammation, lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and potentially protecting against various chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and type 2 diabetes.

What do antioxidants do?

Antioxidants play a crucial role in protecting the body’s cells from damage caused by harmful molecules known as free radicals, which can lead to cell dysfunction and the development of chronic diseases. By neutralizing these free radicals, antioxidants help maintain the integrity of cells and reduce the risk of conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.
